Who would win, prime Tyson Fury or prime Vitali Klitschko?

7 men were rated. Fury, just 3 men were rated. Vitaly wasn't behind in any fight on the cards. Fury was vs Wilder and some others so the Fury UD pick make no sense.

 

Oh dear... ... ...

 

Just stating the facts. Chisora who Vitaly also beat was the third best guy on Fury's thin resume. He's about 8th on Vitaly's resume. I choose to factor such things in before picking Fury.

 

Difficult to say. 50/50 fight.

Fury couldn't bully Vitali. He could win a decision, but it would be close.

Fury could get KO'd, but I don't see Vitali being KOd in this fight.

 

Vitali's highest ranking win is over #2 Sam Peter who was washed up at the time.

That win is on the same level as Wilders win over #2 ranked Bermane Stiverne.

Having such a high ranking doesn't mean those guys were any good from a world level perspective.

 

Vitali is an arm puncher.. The punches Fury took last week proves he has a chin made of titanium.

 

I see no obvious correlation between what you have written above and what I responded to below:

In addition, if you're going to open with "Just stating facts", it's probably worth following that up with actual facts and not with two of your opinions on a common opponent. It is also useful if either the 'facts' you care to mention or your opinions carry some weight, in favor of whatever case you are trying to make

What bearing does your opinion on Chisora have on a bout between Fury and VK?
What bearing does Vitali not being behind on the cards in any fight (allegedly) have on a bout between Fury and VK?

 

Sam Peter was the reigning champion and Vitali was coming back after a 4 year layoff.

If anybody was washed up it was Vitali.

 

You are confusing chin with recover ability!

Furys chin is a little bit above average. The guy was floored with single punches from Peikic and Cunningham.
Those two would never have floored a titanium chin! They both would never knocked Vitali down, not in 100 years!

And what shows that? Fury was laid on on his back by Cunningham and Peikic and was hurt both times.
Vitali wasnt really hurt here.

And so or so it doesnt change the fact chin and recover ability is not the same. Furys RC is 10 of 10, but his chin is maybe 6-7 of 10.

Vitali took some damn hard shots from Lewis and Sanders, some of them were as hard as the ones Wilder landed on Fury on Saturday, but Fury went down and Vitali didnt.

 

Lots of words Dino, but you didn't address the core of the post.

So, because my patience is nearly infinite, I'll strip away all the words but the essential core that illustrates that these were two very different versions of Johnson.


" Vitali scored a shut-out against an undefeated 30-yr old Johnson who was in his prime.

Joshua faced a... 36-year old ... coming off three straight losses.




Cast your eyes to the underlined parts, and focus.

Come on, lad, You can do I !

Pretty much the same versions of Johnson, are they ?




Now I said my patience is nearly infinite, but not quite.

It is now at an end.

Have a pleasant evening !

 

Fury was caught square on by Cunningham who landed a blistering right hand. Yeah , the speed and force knocked him over but he was completely in tune with his senses. He walked into the very same punch in the next round without even feeling it.

Getting up and carrying on to win is the true test of a titanium chin. Fury took shots from Wilder that have and would render many men out cold

 

Then it should have been easier for those guys I mentioned to stop an even OLDER Kevin Johnson , including Hrgovic who many say is very similar to Vitali
. Did that that thought ever cross your mind Dummy? Do you think repeating yourself in larger print is winning an argument... Sad

But its its clear you have no rebuttal to any of my argument so you might as well go away now.

 

"Five-and-a-half years ago Kevin Johnson went 12 rounds with Vitali Klitschko and appeared one of the tougher, more durable members of a moribund heavyweight division. But that was back when his legs could still move, his punches popped out a little more freely, and his ambition was hovering somewhere above zero. Tonight in London, though, Johnson was crushed inside two rounds by 2012 Olympic gold medalist Anthony Joshua; it marked the first time Johnson had been stopped and represented the most impressive scalp on Joshua’s 13-fight unbeaten resume. On this evidence, AJ looks the goods.

Then again, Johnson appeared a shadow of his former self and no amount of pre-fight bluster and bravado could gloss over the fact there were clear reasons why he’d lost his last three fights on the spin, albeit over the distance, and of late hasn’t been winning rounds, let alone fights. And so it proved. Johnson was as pedestrian as Joshua was explosive, as safe as Joshua was adventurous and as tame as Joshua was ferocious. It was a mismatch in every sense of the word."The Ring
